For may years Canadian cattle
Vere admitted into British ports
without altntail:on, while Anreriean'
cattle were embargoed. Canada has
earned this discrimination in her ;
,favor 'by the rigid quarantine site
bad cstablishea atoug the Anuerictau
border, and the measures she has
taken to sunup Out any contagious
disease among her e the -pleuro-1
pneumonia, tuber galeal:; or any
other—at the ntatnnctnt of its discov-1
cry, 11Ir. Gardiner, President of the
British Board of Agriculture, has in-
deed withdrawn the preferential
treatment, and placed Canadian
jF cattle in the same category tus Anneri- s
can, but it is expected than sooner or
later Canadian cattle will be admit-
ted to England, as in the past. That
Canada's true interest lies itt an un-
wavering adherence to those sanitary
regulations which have given her
cattle a right to exceptional treat.
.... mont abroad, is apparent not only
• frons the excellent case which she is
' able til establish is the court of Brit-
ish opinion, but also from the chalices
�►., whieh are developing for the exten-
sion of Canadian trade. on the Euro-
pean Continent. Germany, it seems,
has followed the example of Great
Britain in embargoing American
• cattle—not, however from fear of
pleuro -pneumonia, but on the ground
that they are sometimes found Buffer-
ing from Texas fever. This ailment,
being one of the pceuliar effects of
the Southern climate, could not pos-
sibly arise in Canada. The only
question is whether Texas cattle are
ever sent to Europe by way of Can-
adian ports. They are constantly
shipped from Baltimore, Philadelphia
and New York, on whieh account
• the German Government is amply
justified in embargoing all United
States cattle. But do they ever pass
through Canada? Mr. Angers, the
Dominion Minister of Agriculture,
shows conclusively that they cannot.
,a.s•,- American cattle are absolutely pro-
hibited from entering Canada. The
only exceptions to this rale are in
aI the eases of cattle for stock purposes
from the line between Ontario and
lifaaitoba westward, and pedigree
cattle from that line eastward, and
in such cases safety from taint is en -
shred by a ;, tth,rnntinQ of ninety
clays. In vat w ilii' these eirctililataneea'
the Derainion Ministry has asked the
Iinperial Government to apply to the
Gertnan authorities for such an in-
t terpretation of the word " Anicrica"
as will permit Canadian cattle to be
distinguished from those of the
" United States, and to be admitted
freely. That favorable consideration
4, will be given at Berlin to so reason-
yjable a request can scarcely be doubt-
ed, Such is the advantage which
Canada enjoys, or ought to enjoy,
„, from the precauu'tions she has taken
to preserve the health of her cattle,
that Denmark, live notice, has just
followed our example. She has es-
tablished a .' al uarantine against
United States cattle like ours, in the
hope tItarDanisli cattle, instead of
being slaughtered at Hamburg, will
be allowed to pass ou into the inter-
ior of Germany. If her regulations
are as effective as ours, there is no
reason why they .should not enabe
her to share with us the desired
privilegih.

Eastern poultrymen, who have for
some years held a great annual fair
at Madison ,Square Garden, New York,
the poultrymetr of the Central and
Western States have inaugurated a
similar fair, known as the Mid -Con-
tinental. The first show was held at
Kansas City December 18 to 26 ;
1,(100 birds were on exhibition and
the show proved a great success. On
all such occasions some Ontario ex.
hibitors are sure to be found, and to
be found among the winners, At
Kansas City, Messrs. William McNeil
and George G. McCormick, both of
London, Ont., represented Ontario,
and did us credit. Mr. McNeil took
190 birds and Mr. alcCormick 69,
and they both carried off the leading
cash prizes in their classes. In ad-
dition Mr. McNeil brought home the
gold medal for bantams and won a
000 piano (the leading prize of the
<tfr) for the best collection of twenty
varieties. Mr. McCormick brought
tome a gold medal for the best buff
ochin. 1Ir. McCormick swept the
prizes on White Wyandottes and
Black Jaws. It will, perhaps, be
emembered that Mr. McNeil carried
ff the highest honors of the World's
Fair with 106 awards of his credit.
The New York show is to be held
he last week of 'January and we
hall look for good results from our
Ontario breeders at that show. Com -
